BACKGROUND ART

Among resin materials, aromatic polyethers have excellent heat resistance and also have comparatively excellent mechanical strength and the like and thus are widely used as so-called engineering resins in the automotive fields, mechanical fields, and the like. As a more preferable engineering resin, development of a new structure that is a superior engineering resin combining both heat resistance and thermal stability is in progress.

This technique aims to provide an aromatic polyether resin which has excellent heat resistance and thermal stability as well as excellent mechanical strength and the like and which is able to be advantageously used as an engineering resin.


Meanwhile, as the communication infrastructure of society shifts to 5G, among the electromagnetic waves used in electronic devices, high-frequency regions such as microwaves and millimeter waves are attracting attention and research into uses in communication fields, radar for vehicles, and the like is also in progress. In devices using high-frequency regions, there is a demand for members such as substrates, resonators, filters, and antennas to have a low dielectric constant and a low dielectric loss tangent. At the same time, there is a demand for the materials used for these members to have a combination of various mechanical properties, for example, physical strength, thermal properties, and the like. As materials that satisfy such properties, materials in which a ceramic filler or the like is added to a resin material or the like are currently being considered.

As described above, in the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment, the main material has a high affinity with epoxy resin, bismaleimide resin, or cyanate resin, thus, it is possible to also anticipate an effect of improving the dielectric properties and thermal properties by mixing with a thermosetting resin-based material.


(Action and Effect of Resin Composition for Low-Dielectric Material)

By adding these solvents that easily form an azeotrope with water, it is possible to efficiently remove the water produced by the reaction from the reaction system.


It is possible to appropriately adjust the polymerization temperature depending on the compounds, additives, and solvents used; however, usually, the polymerization is preferably carried out at a temperature of 140° C. to 300° C. and more preferably at 180° C. to 250° C. When the temperature is less than this range, it is not possible to obtain a sufficient reaction rate and degree of polymerization, which is not efficient. In addition, when the temperature exceeds this range, the obtained compound may undergo decomposition, deterioration, or the like.


It is also possible to appropriately adjust the polymerization reaction time depending on the components used and the polymerization temperature, but the polymerization reaction time is usually approximately 0.1 to 20 hours. For example, in a case where NMP or DMI is used in a polar solvent, the polymerization proceeds sufficiently in 3 to 4 hours at a polymerization temperature of 190° C. to 200° C. In order to increase the molecular weight, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization for 15 to 20 hours, or, as appropriate, to use the state in which the polymerization is sufficiently performed, such as the stopping of the stirrer, as a measure of the completion of the polymerization.


As an example of a specific production process, first, an inert solvent component is added to the compounds of Formula (16) and Formula (17), an alkali metal compound, and a polar solvent and then heated and the polymerization temperature is increased stepwise from room temperature to 140° C. to 150° C. While maintaining the temperature, the inert solvent component and water form an azeotrope and are removed. Next, the temperature is raised to the polymerization temperature and the inert solvent component is completely removed while maintaining this temperature. After the inert solvent component is removed, the polymerization temperature is maintained and the polymerization is performed for the polymerization reaction time described above to obtain the compound of Formula (18). After the polymerization reaction is sufficiently completed, the result is cooled to room temperature and recovered using methanol. Thereafter, steps such as further washing with methanol or the like, drying under reduced pressure, and/or reprecipitation using an organic solvent may be performed.


(Other Additives in Production Method)

In a case where the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment is used as an insulating material between layers of a multilayer substrate, the resin composition for a low-dielectric material is preferably produced by mixing a triazine-containing polyether compound, an epoxy resin, a bismaleimide resin or a cyanate resin, a curing accelerator, and an organic solvent.


By carrying out the production by mixing a curing accelerator, the curing reaction of the resin composition for a low-dielectric material proceeds quickly and is thus easy to produce as an insulating material. In particular, in a case where the insulating material is used as an insulating layer on the surface of a film for a multilayer substrate described below, the insulating layer is quickly formed, which is suitable for industrial production.


By carrying out the production by mixing an organic solvent, the resin composition for a low-dielectric material becomes a so-called varnish during production, which makes it easy to apply to other members as an insulating material. In particular, in a case where the insulating material is used as an insulating layer on the surface of a film for a multilayer substrate described below, the coating property is improved when the insulating layer is formed by application to the surface of the film.


As the curing accelerator, it is possible to appropriately use a compound capable of accelerating the curing of the above compounds and, for example, imidazoles, tertiary amines, acid anhydrides, tertiary phosphines, or the like may be used.


It is also possible to appropriately adjust the addition amount depending on the composition of the compound, but the addition amount is preferably in the range of 0.01% by mass to 2% by mass with respect to the total mass of the resin composition for a low-dielectric material.


As the organic solvent, it is possible to appropriately select a solvent capable of dissolving the above compound to form a varnish and, for example, it is possible to use known organic solvents such as alcohol-based solvents, ketones, acetate esters, carbitols, aromatic hydrocarbons, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, or N-methylpyrrolidone. Among the above, it is possible to suitably use propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, cyclohexanone, or methyl ethyl ketone.


It is also possible to appropriately adjust the addition amount depending on the composition of the compound; however, in order to form a varnish, the non-volatile content is preferably in the range of 50% by mass to 70% by mass with respect to the total mass of the resin composition for a low-dielectric material.


The resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment is also preferably produced by further mixing an inorganic filler, a modifier, or a flame retardant.


As the inorganic filler, it is possible to use, for example, fused silica, crystalline silica, alumina, silicon nitride, aluminum hydroxide, or magnesium hydroxide. In a case where the resin composition for a low-dielectric material is used for uses such as conductive pastes and conductive films, it is possible to use conductive fillers such as silver powder and copper powder as inorganic fillers.


As modifiers, it is possible to use, for example, phenoxy resins, polyamide resins, polyimide resins, polyetherimide resins, polyethersulfone resins, polyphenylene ether resins, polyphenylene sulfide resins, polyester resins, polystyrene resins, polyethylene terephthalate resins, and the like.


As flame retardants, it is possible to use, for example, halogen compounds, phosphorus atom-containing compounds, nitrogen atom-containing compounds, inorganic flame retardant compounds, or the like.


(Method for Producing Film for Multilayer Substrate)

In the method for producing a film for a multilayer substrate of the present embodiment, an insulating material including a resin composition for a low-dielectric material is applied to at least one surface of a resin film.


Specifically, in the production method, the varnish-like resin composition for a low-dielectric material is applied to at least one surface of the resin film as described above. Next, it is possible to carry out the production by volatilizing the organic solvent by heating, blowing hot air, or the like to form an insulating layer.


Here, the resin composition for a low-dielectric material preferably has a non-volatile content in a range of 30% by mass to 60% by mass, excluding volatile components such as the organic solvent. When in this range, the coating property of the blended product on a film and the formability of a film for a multilayer substrate are particularly suitable.


The thickness of the insulating layer to be formed is preferably the thickness or greater of the conductor layer of the circuit substrate on which the multilayer substrate is provided, as described below. Assuming that the thickness of the conductor layer of the circuit substrate is usually in the range of 5 μm to 70 μm, the thickness of the resin composition layer is preferably 10 μm to 100 μm.


(Method for Producing Multilayer Substrate)

In the method for producing a multilayer substrate of the present embodiment, two or more of the films for a multilayer substrate are laminated.


When producing a printed wiring board using the multilayer substrate of the present embodiment, in a case where the film for the multilayer substrate is protected by a protective film, it is possible to perform the production by peeling the protective film off and then carrying out lamination on one surface or both surfaces of the circuit substrate, for example, by a vacuum lamination method, such that the layer is directly in contact with the circuit substrate, or the like. The lamination method may be a batch-type or a continuous roll-type method. In addition, the film and circuit substrate may be heated (preheated) before performing the lamination, as necessary.


In a case of producing a conductor multilayer substrate, the conductor multilayer substrate may be formed by the following procedure. That is, an insulating layer of a prepreg cured product is obtained by impregnating the fiber base material with the resin composition for a low-dielectric material adjusted to be in the form of a varnish and carrying out heating at a heating temperature according to the type of solvent used, preferably at 50° C. to 170° C. As the fiber base material, it is possible to use paper, glass cloth, glass non-woven fabric, aramid paper, aramid cloth, matte-treated glass, glass roving cloth, or the like. At this time, the blending ratio of resin composition for a low-dielectric material and the fiber base material to be used is usually preferably adjusted such that the resin content in the prepreg is 20% by mass to 60% by mass.


It is possible to obtain the desired conductor plate multilayer substrate by laminating the obtained prepregs and further overlaying and heat-pressing a film of a material to be a conductor layer, for example, a copper foil. Here, a specific example of a heat-pressing method is a method performed under a temperature condition of 170° C. to 250° C. under a pressure of 1 MPa to 10 MPa. In addition, the heat-pressing is preferably performed for 10 minutes to 3 hours.


In a case of using the film for a multilayer substrate as a build-up printed substrate, the multilayer substrate and printed substrate may be formed using the following procedure. That is, a resin composition for a low-dielectric material is applied to a wiring substrate on which a circuit is formed using a spray coating method, a curtain coating method, or the like and then cured. Next, after drilling predetermined through hole portions or the like as necessary, a treatment using a roughening agent is carried out and the surface is washed with hot water to form uneven portions and then subjected to a treatment for plating a metal such as copper thereon. The plating method is preferably electroless plating or an electrolytic plating treatment. In addition, as the roughening agent, it is possible to use an oxidizing agent, an alkali, an organic solvent, or the like. Such an operation is repeated as desired to alternately build up and form insulating layers and conductor layers having a predetermined circuit pattern, thereby making it possible to obtain a build-up substrate. However, the drilling of the through hole portions is preferably performed after the formation of the outermost insulating layer, in addition, it is also possible to produce a build-up substrate by forming a roughened surface on the wiring substrate on which the circuit is formed by heat-pressing at 170° C. to 250° C. a copper foil having an attached resin in which the resin composition is semi-cured on a copper foil and omitting the step of the plating treatment.


(Method for Producing Sealing Materials for Electronic Components and the Like)

Examples of a procedure for adjusting the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment as a sealing material for electronic components include pre-mixing the resin composition for a low-dielectric material, an epoxy resin, a bismaleimide resin or a cyanate resin, and other coupling agents and/or additives such as mold release agents, inorganic fillers, and the like to be blended as necessary and then sufficiently mixing the result until uniform using an extruder, a kneader, a roll, or the like. In a case of being used as a tape-shaped sealing agent for semiconductors, examples thereof include a method in which the resin composition obtained by the procedure described above is heated to produce a semi-cured sheet as a sealing agent tape and the sealing agent tape is placed on a semiconductor chip, softened and molded by heating to 100° C. to 150° C., and then completely cured at 170° C. to 250° C.


Examples of a method for adjusting the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment as a resist ink include further adding an organic solvent, a pigment, talc, a filler, and the like to the resin composition for a low-dielectric material, the epoxy resin, and the bismaleimide resin or the cyanate resin to form a resist ink composition and then applying the resist ink composition onto a printed substrate by a screen-printing method to form a resist ink cured product. Examples of the organic solvents used here include ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, cyclohexanone, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dioxolane, tetrahydrofuran, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, ethyl lactate, and the like.


In a case where the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment is used as an insulating material, for example, an insulating material between semiconductor layers, examples of methods include blending a curing accelerator and a silane coupling agent in addition to the resin composition for a low-dielectric material, the epoxy resin, and the bismaleimide resin or the cyanate resin to adjust a composition, which is applied to a silicon substrate by spin coating or the like. In this case, since the cured coating film is directly in contact with the semiconductor, it is preferable to make the coefficient of linear expansion of the insulating material close to the coefficient of linear expansion of the semiconductor such that cracks do not occur due to the difference in the coefficients of linear expansion in a high-temperature environment.


In a case where the resin composition for a low-dielectric material of the present embodiment is used as a conductive paste, examples thereof include a method in which fine conductive particles are dispersed in the resin composition for a low-dielectric material to form a composition for an anisotropic conductive film or a method for forming a paste resin composition for circuit connection or an anisotropic conductive adhesive which is liquid at room temperature.

Reference Example 4

The compound of Reference Example 4, which was polyether (BFPT-BisPIND), was synthesized as follows.


BFPT (0.6907 g, 2.00 mmol) and BisPIND (0.5368 g, 2.00 mmol) were placed into a two-necked flask (50 mL) provided with a stirrer and a nitrogen gas inlet tube and potassium carbonate (0.3334 g, 2.40 mmol) as an alkali metal compound, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP, 5.0 mL) as a neutral polar solvent, and toluene (20 mL) as an inert solvent component were added thereto. A Dean-Stark trap and a Liebig condenser were attached and a nitrogen gas atmosphere was created. The temperature was raised stepwise to 150° C. while stirring, toluene was refluxed at 150° C. for 2 hours, and the produced water was removed using the Dean-Stark trap. Thereafter, the temperature was raised to 190° C. and the result was stirred for 2 hours to remove toluene. Thereafter, polymerization was carried out at 190° C. for 3 hours. The result was left to cool to room temperature to obtain a brown, viscous polymerization solution. The polymer was precipitated by being poured into methanol, recovered, and then washed with hot methanol and dried under reduced pressure at room temperature. The obtained polymer was dissolved in NMP and poured into methanol to precipitate a white flaky polymer. The polymer was recovered and then dried under reduced pressure at room temperature.
